khan | 8 years ago | Reply Mr. Aziz you might be an expert accountant but unfortunately your pushed into diplomacy - we know its not fair, but for you to continue in this unknown field is not fair with the country and nation, please leave this position and go back to your original experties. If you advise and push to attend NSA meeting by India then kindly, avoid any press release what so ever. Better find excuse and prepare UN meeting, otherwise, Indian will chew you again and spit you again like bital nut, as they did in USSR.
Bhu | 8 years ago | Reply @Shahid Do you even know who runs your country'? The pm, the army, the terrorist leaders or U.S through its drones? Are you even sure if your country is democratic or Dictatorial? Your comment seems to say that Modi should meet your country's dictators and not the PM nawaz sharif
